We have launched a new specialist therapeutic fostering programme called “Back to Bristol”. Back to Bristol is specifically aimed at recruiting foster carers who will support children to return to Bristol after living in children’s homes outside of the city. This has been launched following a significant increase in the number of children in care currently living residential children’s homes outside of Bristol.
